System to revolutionize patient resource management and efficiency of U.S. healthcare syste.

Spright, the drone solution division of Air Methods Corporation, responsible for building the only bi-directional, drone-based, healthcare-specific delivery network across the United States and beyond, announced their partnership with StrixDrones, an Israeli-based pioneering technology company and industry leader in the future of drone delivery and drone docking stations, to include the Strix DroneDrop mailbox as a key component of Spright’s US drone delivery operations.  The installment of the initial Strix DroneDrop mailbox was completed recently at Spright’s facility in Pendleton, Oregon.

“We are excited to further refine the infrastructure of our medically-focused drone delivery network that will revolutionize how medical products, patient specimens, and other vital supplies are moved between healthcare facilities,” said Spright’s Senior Vice President of Commercial Business Justin Steinke. “A more efficient and green transport model will elevate patient care through wider, faster and more reliable access to vital healthcare resources. The Nest provides customers with added level of convenience, safety, and project scalability.”

The first autonomous and universal commercial drone delivery mailbox in the world, the Strix DroneDrop enables drones of any kind (drone agnostic), including eVTOL, to deliver and retrieve packages in a secure manner, through stations with sealed compartments. The mailbox can accommodate multiple packages simultaneously, while also recharging aircraft batteries, downloading flight data, and monitoring local weather conditions. The smart system design can connect and communicate with any drone command-and-control software, and the modular landing pad has centering X/Y arms and elevators that move the package up or down inside the unit as needed. Also featuring a custom, downloadable app and camera security, DroneDrop is user-friendly, safe, and convenient for consumers, while enabling more cost-effective, productive, and profitable drone operations.

“I am very pleased with the recent deployment and installation of the first unit, and we stand behind the efficiency and reliability of DroneDrop. I am confident it’s going to revolutionize the commercial drone delivery industry and make drone fleets more cost-effective, productive, and profitable for our clients,” said Niv Aharoni, co-founder and CEO of StrixDrones.
